Artist Statement: generally there is some type of feeling or emotion behind each painting that has made me paint that in the first place, and i like to use text alot to portray that feeling or message. i love using words in paintings also because i feel like im personally connecting to everyone who ever sees it; and asthetically words can do so much for a piece. im heavily inspired and influenced by brett whiteley, i love the flow and style of his work, and i also find myself feeling constantly inspired by the grafitti/ street art and going on's of melbourne as a whole. if im ever feeling uninspired, it never lasts. im surrounded by amazing people and places.
